I've been reading some online reviews though, and for the most part they're pretty brutal.

This is a very adult show though (in more ways than one....lol), and I imagine it will have a hard time finding an audience that isn't older, married, or boo'ed up based on what I've seen from the pilot. There's little to no humor, the pace is relatively slow, and the sex scenes while graphic, also capture the real-life awkwardness/clumsiness or just regular people fuckin.

The good thing though, is that everybody knows somebody who is in at least one stage of the show's three relationships, or is perhaps in it themselves. That's why I think it has promise.
